Estádio João Serra

Estádio João Serra is a football stadium in Ponta do Sol on Santo Antão island with an artificial pitch measuring 100 by 65 meters. The facility sits near the Atlantic coast surrounded by mountainous terrain on the northern part of the island.

The facility was built as a sports venue for the region and became the regular home for football matches between local teams. Over time it developed into an important location for hosting regional championships and competitions.

The stadium brings the community together through football matches and regional competitions that draw spectators from surrounding areas. People gather here to support their local teams and celebrate victories as a shared experience.

The venue accommodates around 2,000 spectators and remains accessible year-round thanks to Cape Verde's consistent climate that supports outdoor sports. Visitors should plan access carefully as the location is somewhat remote from main population centers on the island.

The stadium sits in one of Africa's driest regions where football holds special significance in daily community life. This remote hilltop location creates an unusual backdrop where competitive sports play out against a sparse natural landscape.
